:24:00
- You like class?
- Oh, very much.

:24:02
You hit the jackpot.
Brad Bishop... class plus money.

:24:05
Yes, sir. The jackpot and you hit it.
:24:08
Count 'em on the fingers of one hand
in this town... throw away some fingers even.

:24:11
There's... There's Brad and who else?
:24:14
Yeah. There's Addie.
:24:16
Addie? Addie who?
:24:18
Ross. Addie Ross.
:24:21
- Funny. People always figured
Brad and Addie would...
- Brad and Addie what?

:24:25
The samba can be danced properly
only on the side of a hill on ice.

:24:29
Alibi. He was afraid
of getting wrinkles in his new suit.

:24:32
Oh, my first new party dress
in years...

:24:34
thanks to my dear wife
and her millions of listeners...

:24:36
including the armed forces overseas.
:24:38
Shall we drink to them all...
one by one?

:24:41
- How about some coffee?
- George. I think your tuxedo has got class, George.

:24:46
- We thank you.
- Funny thing for a wife
to give her husband a tuxedo.

:24:49
- An even funnier thing
for a husband to give his wife.

:24:52
Come on, Deborah.
While the coffee's nice and hot.

:24:54
- You're so funny, George.
- I still don't think a woman
oughta buy clothes for a man.

:24:58
- It's about time they start.
- Contrary to nature.

:25:00
Oh, tell us about nature, Porter.
:25:02
It's a man's worid, yeah.
:25:04
See something you want,
go after it and get it. That's nature.

:25:07
It's why we're made strong
and women weak.

:25:09
Strong conqueror provides for the weak.
That's what a man's for.

:25:12
Teach our kids more of that,
there'll be more men.

:25:14
And more war.
Leave my kids out.

:25:17
But those standards don't apply to me, Porter...
:25:19
because in this man's worid,
I'm not a man.

:25:22
- I'm a schoolteacher.
- The dance is over.

:25:25
I knew we'd get around to that.
:25:27
All right.
Schoolteachers oughta get paid more.

:25:29
And what happens if they're not?
:25:31
How does a schoolteacher
provide for the weak?

:25:34
How does he pay the rent
with the plays and poems of Shakespeare?

:25:37
Have you been shooting off
your big mouth again?

:25:40
You just shut up till
it's time to dance again.

:25:42
Let me tell you about nature
making men strong.

:25:44
Einstein couldn't kick a football
across this dance floor...

:25:47
but he changed
the shape of the universe.

:25:49
Now, take it easy, everybody.
This is getting a little out of hand.

:25:52
You never know what he'll come up with
when he starts knocking on that brandy bottle.

:25:56
You shut up.
You just shut up.

:25:58
Isn't it fun, Deborah?
We're all pals. You know, buddies.
